Bring natural textures to messy play with the Coconut Sand and Water Tools from Cosy Direct. This five-piece set gives children aged 3 years and over a hands-on way to scoop, sift, make marks and explore sand, water and soil.
Set them out in a sandpit, at a messy play table or in a mud kitchen. Children can stir a pretend mud recipe, transfer sand between bowls or watch water drain through the perforated tools, discovering different ways to move and handle materials.

Learning through play
Scooping, pouring and sifting give children opportunities to practise fine motor control, coordination and dexterity. Comparing quantities and filling containers can introduce early ideas about measurement and volume; add weighing equipment to explore weight too.
Encourage imaginative play with pretend cooking, a farmer's market or sandcastle building. Pair with coconut bowls or pretend fruit and vegetables to inspire sorting, measuring and conversations about ingredients and quantities. Additional play resources are not included.
The tools also offer a starting point for investigating material properties, water flow, floating and sinking. Children can compare how sand, water and soil behave, describe the textures they feel and share their discoveries.
